Why read it?
1 author picked Beautiful Creatures as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A contemporary storyline mixed with historical details give book one in this four-book, gothic fantasy series a rich backdrop for family conflict on an unexpectedly dark scale as the main character, Lena, faces a cursed countdown to her 16th birthday.

From Valerie's list on witchcraft novels that launch bingeworthy series.
